Yes opening day for Kannapolis! TBD on the hill, really?! Smith for AAA. A little odd they pitch Schultz and Smith back to back. Would expect a right hander in-between .

Lotta exciting players to watch on this team.

Interesting to see another guy from the outside starting on Day 1 in Boston Smith.

Fauske works an 0 - 2 count to 3 - 2 and smacks a triple over the RF head.

Carlson knocks him in with a single up the middle. Go kids go!

Fuaske triple, Carlson RBI single is a solid way to start

On the FutureSox pod they had someone from BA (whose name I forget right now) saying Fauske’s speed is a 60+ tool.

Carlson draws a walk.

Lee back in Charlotte for now.

Hagen 95-97.4 first inning.

Where is Lacombe starting the season? I might've thought Kanny but I don't see him on the roster.

Not a well located 94.2 mph meatball from Smith.

Luckily just a double.

“Freddy Zamora advances to 3rd, on a throwing error by left fielder Dru Baker.”

this sounds quite familiar

He's in extended spring to start

5 Ks through three iP for Smith.

Velocity down 1-2 mph.

Looks he he's headed for five innings.

5K’s and most importantly 0 walks so far for Hagen. Fairly economical by his standards sitting at 50 pitches through 3 innings. He and Shultz have been very encouraging to start.

Done after 3. Control is a huge improvement so far

Like who? I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to A ball.

Man, the game's not going Kelenic any favors.

Hagen Smith is doing 3 inning starts initially so he can finish without getting shutdown in Chicago.

Carlson, Fauske, Alcala to me. Big potential imo. McClain, Mogollon, the new guy Boston, LaCombe on a lower scale. Not much interesting in the way of pitching unless some guys come out of no where.

They really have to protect their bullpen if they're going to have 2-3 rookies debuting in the second half.

Sandlin another outside of the Big 4, too.

He shall be available for the pennant race down the stretch
